Well we can't be sure that you'll see Richard Swift, Andy Cabic and Eric D. Johnson standing shoulder-to-shoulder at Pickathon like we saw them Saturday night at The Woods. But we can say that they'll be there. This weeks announcement of the 2011 lineup will get your head spinning. That's a lot of music, and there are a few more to come.

For those folks who came out last Saturday night, the final night of Benefest, that was something special seeing those three artists do solo sets and then finish it off with some amazing collaborating. Thank you everyone for supporting the arts at Buckman and Portland Public Schools. Benefest was a huge success this year and we owe a massive thanks to all the artists, venues, volunteers, and every single person who made it out to any of the shows. Thank you!
